Collection 8/15/57/8 - granular conglomerate bed which forms nose of anticline at
the joint road cross it. About 100' stratigraphically below #7.
{note: illustration followed}
PG. 35
8/16/57 - Neal Ranch
Studied the face of #2 gray limestone member of King.
Collection 8/16/57/1 - near base of reef rubble beds west of west reef in main
massif.
This as a mirror image, the view is really east, {note: illustration:
bed 1: Covered
bed 2: 10'; coarse rubble
bed 3: 8'; 8/16/57/1; irregular bedded fine rubble
bed 4: 55' massive; 8/16/57/2
bed 5: 10'; crude bedding but indistinct}
8/16/57/2 - boulder from higher in the reef.
8/16/57/3 - just below notch in #2 limestone mbr. North of Neal Ranch. 3 bags;
This collection is from reef talus beds and is really loaded with fusulines (for reef
strata).
PG. 36
8/16/57/4 - on west flank of east massif on main reef, this was collected about 20'
stratigraphically below a brown weathering dolomite bed 7' thick. {note:

This has a fairly rich fusuline fauna.
Collection 8/16/57/5 - about 10' above dolomite bed. This has a few fusulines,
but several (at least 2) kinds of Ceratitic ammonites.
Collection 8/16/57/6 - East side of geologists' canyon above terrva block
structure in what is fairly definitely Gaptank if King's maps are right.
Collection 8/16/57/7 - shale from Uddenites zone exposed on Terrva block east
of Geologists' Canyon.
PG. 37
Collection 8/16/57/8- from Uddenites shale interval, east side of Geologists'
Canyon, on Terrva Block I believe the actual occurrence of Uddenites is quite low
in this zone.
Collection 8/16/57/9 - Top bed in terrva block, east side geologists' canyon.
Collection 8/16/57/10 - about same stratigraphic position as 8/16/57/9 but is on
the thin wedge of #2 limestone member which pinches out on the Gaptank.
